I always thought Tom’s instruments are from a natural substance, ebonite or hard rubber vs from a man-made substance through careful consideration. The natural material is closer to grenadilla acoustics than a thermoplastic resin.
intuitively that makes since to me. I achieve better acoustics with my Ridenour compared to a plastic model. As the technology improves and makers do a better job, I’m not surprised this is not an absolute anymore.
